THE CLASSIFIEDS
One of the most important elements of our site is the classified
advertising section. We upload every recruitment advertisement
carried in the newspaper. Now, though, there is a fast search
facility, so that you can look through all the jobs that you might
want to apply for.
For advertisers:
We continue to include all recruitment advertisements in the paper
and on the website.
LINKS
Just £149 + VAT gets your advertisement into Church Times and
Church Times website.
WHERE TO WORSHIP
This is an opportunity to list your church, with or without a
picture, in this successful, long-running section of the paper. An
entry in the newspaper will cost you just £149 a year.
BANNER ADVERTISEMENTS
To help fund the site, we are accepting a number of banner
advertisements. Banners: these come in a choice of two sizes. They
appear randomly through the site, so that each banner advertisement
has an equal chance of being seen by visitors, even if they simply
visit a bookmarked page of the site. A back-office reporting
structure enables us to demonstrate to advertisers the number of
times their advertisements show up on screen. Costs are based on a
rate per thousand page impressions or you can purchase an annual
contract from as little as £390.00.
